ok here's the deal, my sr seems to be acting up at constant speeds, and by that i mean it gets jerky and hesitant, feels almost like fuel cut or a boost leak. ran some injector cleaner through her, fuel filter was ok, and spark plugs looked alright. any ideas on what could be causing the hesitation? the problem only occurs at constant speeds (freeway speeds its starting to occur more often) or low rpm's (sub 3000).
thanks in advance for any help!

Try checking your MAF and your throttle body/ surge tank. Try cleaning your MAF and then with the help of another, with the car running, spray come cleaner in your surge tank to blow out and crap sitting in there.. The other thing I can think of, off hand is backtrack over your wiring and check things out..

Also to add what was allready said, check for a boost leak, I had similar experience with those symptoms when I had a major boost leak.

k thanks, i'm a little skeptical of the boost leak since when i get on it it doesnt do it at all. wouldnt the sympoms occure more when i got into it a little and not when its at a constant speed?

This is what happened with me, full throttle was a no-no, but partial throttle worked OK. So maybe your right, it may not be a leak.

Still, it wouldn't be a bad thing to do. Once things are said and done, I'd still go over the vacuum lines too. It doesn't help to check things out..

LoL... if it doesn't help, then why bother doing it??
I'm sure you meant to say "it doesn't hurt...."
